Subject: Makes me sad I wasn't there. Great recording
Subject: Makes me sad I wasn't there. Great recording
Another of the good crisp recordings, (bow to engineer). Yes there is a howl but some interesting other smaller poems make this a unique session.
Last Poetry reading of the summer session- it has a nice "end of camp" feeling. Allen arranges selections based on theme of lineage.
Long pleasant intro by Anne Waldman,
9:30: Allen begins- explains Kargyu mantra AH
(sung in 1-4-4-1-5-1 1-4-4-1-5-1)
11:44: AH mantra
16:11: Talk about Louis
16:43: On the Grave of My Father by Louis Ginsberg
18:14: Ayer's Rock. (accompanied by sticks)
21:00: Howl
43:29: Footnote to Howl
47:00: End
47:00: MC Intros Steven Taylor
47:46: Steven sings and plays very sweetly
52:35: Mystery MC returns with surprisingly touching finale speech.
56:05: Anne Waldman performs with Steven Taylor and Stefan Patowski (?).
